Addressables and Unity.Rendering.RenderMesh

I am trying to use the Addressable System with ECS and loading my assets async. So I created a ScriptableObject called EntitySettings:

Code (CSharp):

1.    
2. [Serializable]
3.     public class EntityAsset
4.     {
5.         [SerializeField]
6.         private AssetReference _asset = null;
7.  
8.         [SerializeField]
9.         private AssetReference _material = null;
10.  
11.         public AssetReference Asset => _asset;
12.         public AssetReference Material => _material;
13.     }
14.  
15.     [CreateAssetMenu(menuName ="Create Entity Asset")]
16.     public class EntitySettings : ScriptableObject
17.     {
18.         [SerializeField]
19.         private EntityAsset _player = null;
20.  
21.         public EntityAsset Player => _player;
22.     }

I then use this to load the assets for the player and create an entity for the player. However, I've noticed strange behavior. The player's model and material load fine via LoadAssetAsync and I can use GameObject.Instantiate, but I cannot assign that mesh or material to the RenderMesh. Nothing happens.

Code (CSharp):

1.        
2. private IEnumerator RegisterPlayer()
3.         {
4.             var manager = World.Active.EntityManager;
5.             var entitySettings = ServiceLocator.FindService<EntitySettings>();
6.             var playerModel = entitySettings.Player.Asset.LoadAssetAsync<GameObject>();
7.             var playerMaterial = entitySettings.Player.Material.LoadAssetAsync<Material>();
8.  
9.             yield return playerModel;
10.             yield return playerMaterial;
11.  
12.             var playerMeshFilter = playerModel.Result.GetComponent<MeshFilter>();
13.             var material = playerMaterial.Result;
14.  
15.             var playerMesh = new RenderMesh() {
16.                 mesh = playerMeshFilter.sharedMesh,
17.                 material = material,
18.                 subMesh = 0,
19.                 castShadows = ShadowCastingMode.On,
20.                 receiveShadows = true
21.             };
22.  
23.             var playerArchtype = manager.CreateArchetype(
24.                 typeof(PlayerInputData),
25.                 typeof(MoveableData),
26.                 typeof(PlayerMovementData),
27.                 typeof(Translation),
28.                 typeof(LocalToWorld),
29.                 typeof(RenderMesh));
30.  
31.             var playerEntity = manager.CreateEntity(playerArchtype);
32.  
33.             manager.SetComponentData(playerEntity, new Translation { Value = Vector3.zero });
34.             manager.SetComponentData(playerEntity, new PlayerMovementData { Speed = 4f });
35.             manager.SetSharedComponentData(playerEntity, playerMesh);
36.         }

If I set the RenderMesh's mesh and material to a hard reference in EntitySettings, everything is fine.

 

So I created the repo project. It works perfectly. Sounds like I am doing something wrong on my side. Thanks for the follow up.
